I'm on Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 on an Eee PC 900. I was able to fix my broken sound input strictly by point-and-clicking my way through the GUI.
I don't have the exact sequence of steps, but here is the end result: Right-click on sound icon (upper right of screen). Pick: Open Volume Control (The Playback tab should be selected.) Click Preferences button. Enable all checkboxes. Click Close. Set sliders: * Master 100% (unmuted) * PCM 100% (unmuted) * Front 100% (unumbed) * Front Mic 100% (muted) * Front Mic Boost 30% (unmuted) * Microphone 100% (muted) * Mic Boost 30% (unmuted) Now click the Recording tab: Set: * Capture 100% (muted) Now click the Options tab: Set Input Source: Front Mic (it was set to Mic, but I changed it to Front Mic) Click Close. Now back at the main Netbook Launcher panel, go to Preferences Sound. The Devices tab should be displayed. Sound Events: * Sound playback: Autodetect Music and Movies: * Sound playback: Autodetect Audio Conferencing: * Sound playback: Autodetect * Sound capture: HDA Intel ALC662 Analog (ALSA) Default Mixer Tracks: * Device: Capture HDA Intel - ALC662 Analog (PulseAudio Mi...) Click Close. Now back at the main Netbook Launcher panel, try Sound Recorder. Set Record as: CD Quality, Lossy (.ogg type) Click Record. (say something) Click Stop. Click Play. Now set Record as: Voice, Lossless (.wav type) Click Record. (say something) Click Stop. Click Play. In Skype: Set Sound Devices: * Sound In (HDA Intel (hw:Intel,0) * Sound Out (HDA Intel (hw:Intel,0) * Ringing (HDA Intel (hw:Intel,0) Make a test call. If you just installed 9.04 Netbook Remix on an Eee 900, and you compare the default settings to what I just described, please reply and post what settings were DIFFERENT. That is, reply with what you had to change. Then it would be possible to put together a simpler HOWTO. -- [Jaunty] Microphone doesn't work at all on Eee 900 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354707 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
